Promoting non-transition metal alkylation with organic halides in the presence of binary systems based on an organometallic compound and a transition metal compound: VIII. Selectivity of the binary systems action

详细

Selectivity of action of binary systems based on an organometallic compound and a transition metal compound in a direct synthesis of organometallic compounds via alkylation of metals with organic halides has been considered. Study of the side reactions in the course of zinc and cadmium powders alkylation (gaseous hydrocarbons evolution) taken as an example has demonstrated that the increase in activity of the binary system components is accompanied by decrease in its selectivity. The intensity of the side reactions is steeply increased above certain temperature determined by the nature of the reactants and components of the binary system. The surface of the alkylated metal containing adatoms and small clusters of the transition metal promotes the side processes.
